Brussels Zaventem Airport (BRU) to Croix

The Drive from Zaventem to Croix

The route covers 124 km (78 miles) and typically takes 1 h 26 m. You leave the airport area, join the motorway network towards the French border and continue into the Lille area. This is a less frequently booked route, but it is available on request like any other. Allow some extra time if you travel during weekday rush hours, when traffic around Brussels and on the approach to Lille can be heavier. Because the trip crosses from Belgium into France, keep your passport or ID card within easy reach.

Choosing the Right Vehicle

The vehicle should match your group size and luggage:

• Private Taxi for 1-4 passengers, suited to individuals, couples and small families.
• Private Minibus 8 Seats for 1-8 passengers, useful when you carry extra luggage or travel as a larger family.
• Private Minibus 16 Seats and 24 Seats for groups of up to 16 or 24, such as business teams or event guests.
• Private Minibus 32, 40 and 48 Seats for larger parties of up to 32, 40 or 48 passengers travelling together.

If your group sits between two sizes, take the larger one so everyone has room for bags.

About Croix

Croix is a town in the north of France, part of the Lille metropolitan area and right next to Roubaix. Its location close to the Belgian border explains the fairly short transfer from Brussels. It is best known for the Villa Cavrois, a modernist house from the 1930s that is open to visitors. Most travellers come here for business in the Lille-Roubaix-Tourcoing area, to visit family or to explore the region.
